Would You Rather: Live in the Matrix or Tron’s Mainframe?

It’s Tuesday, which means it’s time for “Would You Rather,” the game that asks you to make the tough choices. In last week’s question, would you rather save Star Trek or Star Wars, Star Trek won by 70%. This week, you’ll be going digital.

The Scenario

Your weekly visit to Wood University for human experimentation takes you in a new direction. Professor Rather explains that his team has developed technology to transfer your consciousness into a digital form. This will allow you to enter a computer-generated world. They have two options: you can enter the Matrix from the titular movie series or the ENCOM mainframe from TRON. Wood U’s Rather asks, “Which do you choose?”

The Ground Rules

• If you choose the Matrix, you’ll be sent into the digital world with a full complement of martial arts and weapons training. You’ll spend much of your time fighting the Agents alongside the Resistance.
• The Matrix you enter will be the one from the first movie, so Neo won’t have come along or flooded it with Agent Smiths.
• If you choose the Mainframe, you’ll be sent into the ENCOM grid with a light cycle and a disk. You’ll spend much of your time fighting the MCP’s forces.
• The Grid will be the one from the original movie, so lightcycles will stay on the Grid, and CLU won’t be messing with it. Everyone knows how cool TRON vehicles are.
• Once you enter the digital world, your body will be disintegrated. Whichever world you choose, you’ll be there permanently. You won’t be able to jack out of the Matrix or the Grid. Don’t worry, your body will be fine.
• You won’t be able to travel from one world to the other. You can’t change your mind once the upload is complete.
